Rangers interested in Cubs outfielder Jorge Soler, the right-handed bat people say will come in the form of Encarnacion, Trumbo or Napoli

 

Encarncion negotiationing with Cleveland close

Do not be surprised if Rangers trade a major league player for inexperienced prospect with no discernible MLB service time. Don't be.

I'm not talking about Hamels, Darvish, Odor, Mazara. Talking more about reliever or a Profar.

 

 

I'd be very interested in Profar at that price.

Red Sox and Brewers agree to a trade likely involving a reliever according to mlbtr.

Wow. Brew crew got Dubon, Shaw, and Pennington for that reliever

 

Dubon had sick stats at AA - could be a starting SS/2B somewhere in a few years

Still have the pieces to land Sale + Robertson/Melky

Should tell you how much more valuable relief pitching has gotten over he past two years. Also should tell you how much more value Nate Jones has than just the deal mentioned above.

But does that remove a suitor for Jones?

I doubt it. Can never have enough quality bullpen arms, just like starters.

Yep thats why my post listed Robertson as still an option. They are a team that got pummeled by the Indians bullpen so they know first hand that bullpens are key.

MLB Trade Rumors ‏@mlbtraderumors 39m39 minutes ago

 

Chris Colabello Rejects Outright Assignment, Elects Free Agency http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/12/chri...ree-agency.html

 

If we are entering 2017 with Abreu and Frazier gone I think I'd sign Colabello/carter. May be a good mercenary piece to trade off if they are doing well and a team needs a bat.

Dexter Fowler remains squarely in sights of #Bluejays and #Stlcards. Toronto would have to offer much more with severe tax ramifications

 

Looks like EE"s agent overplayed his hand.

Cub fans think that Soler should bring back Wade Davis. :huh:

Deal is close

Watch them deal Eloy Jimenez/Wilson Contreras. It would be hysterical. Cubs are desperate for an arm to replace Chapman, even though they won't show it.

Looks like they aren't far off....at all.

 

Even though I dont like Soler...that's still alot
